Review of Game-On

Game-On (1995–1998)
10/10
Ben Chaplin the King
5 September 2006
Watched 'game-on' on the BBC in the mid-90s, but since lost the VHS recording. Just after getting all 3 series on DVD, and my suspicions confirmed: Series One featuring Ben Chaplin, the only one worth watching. The man is awesome, what a pity Hollywood came calling just before the recording of the 2nd series. Neil Stuke, with the greatest respect, is not in the same league as Chaplin, and in my opinion, the character of Matt Malone is devalued in series 2 and 3 with Stuke playing the lead-role. Series One is up-there with the best of English comedy, in the 90s or any era. Just a great shame Ben Chaplin didn't feature in all-18 episodes.. He's the King!!
